McKellens Chartered Accounts

Welcome to McKellens Chartered Accountants, a long-established, independent firm of chartered accountants based in Stockport, Cheshire. At McKellens, we believe that your accountant should be more than just a scorekeeper for your business. We believe that accountants should be partners in your business, helping you to grow and develop it. Our philosophy is simple: we believe in helping owner-managed businesses to become the most successful and enjoyable to run, by focusing on what you want to achieve in life and in business.

Our Philosophy

Our vision is to help owner-managed businesses become the most successful and enjoyable to run. We know that in most small businesses, there is a successful entrepreneur trying to get out from under a welter of red tape, paperwork, and firefighting. Our aim is to release you by firstly focusing on what you want to achieve in life and in business, and then working together to achieve those goals. Underpinning this vision are three fundamental principles that guide how we do business: professionalism, reliability, and personal service.
